Description

User Registration Error Feedback Missing

Problem

On the user registration form, when an error occurs, there is no visible feedback mechanism such as a toast notification, inline error message, or alert. Users are left without guidance on what went wrong.

Impact

  • Users may get confused if their registration fails silently.
  • Leads to poor user experience and frustration.
  • Increases the likelihood of repeated failed attempts.

Suggested Fix

  • Implement toast notifications, inline error messages, or modal alerts to display validation and server-side errors.
  • Ensure error messages are clear, concise, and specific .
  • Maintain consistency with the app’s existing design system (colors, typography, etc.).

Expected Outcome

  • Users immediately understand why their registration failed.
  • Improved usability and smoother onboarding process.
  • Reduced frustration and better error recovery.
